Country Profiles

This series of profiles of foreign
nations is part of the Country Studies Program, formerly the Army
Area Handbook Program. The profiles offer brief, summarized information
on a country’s historical background, geography, society,
economy, transportation and telecommunications, government and politics,
and national security.

NOTE: The month and year in which each profile was created or most recently
updated appear after each country name. Funding for this program has now ended, and the Profiles are no longer updated.
